They deserve every bit of it. He's not, unfortunately. I've been telling him every day he should join us here. He used to do steemit way back in 2017 and is a fantastic writer. He even has a degree in English. One day I will convince him.

Dude your brother needs to find a way to push through being exhausted after work and start back up here. Once he gets that little engine going, it'll be a lot easier. Hard as hell to get people to start here, but a lot easier if they are already familiar with the basics of how everything functions.

Man tell me about it. I've tried everything, he just uses the exhaustion thing every time. I get it, I used to be tired as shit after work. But I made myself do it because I know my worth. I've showed him my earnings, which are nothing compared to yours, but it's still significant. I've even showed him stats on large accounts. He gets it and he even made a few hundred on one single post back in the steemit glory days, I just think he's comfortable being miserable at this point. Always talks about how much he hates it but won't do anything about it. Again, I get it. I was that way too.

That sucks so much. Getting comfortable doesn't equal happiness. I understand that it's extremely difficult to break out of that kind of prism. The thing is if he got in, he can get out. This is a way out, although it may not be quite as easy as snapping the fingers.

It really does. I hate seeing him so worn out. His dream is to be a writer and write books. Hive is the perfect place to get your material/content out there while earning real world value. One day he'll get tired of me telling him hopefully lol

My goodness, the dude better gets to writing. Maybe he will be on here once it's easy to start making $100/day as soon as you join.

Exactly. Maybe he'll listen then. I sincerely hope so. I wish I had stayed active since I joined Steemit in 2017 but I was doing the same shit. I was stuck in the loop of the 9-7 exhausting workdays.
